Running down memory lane with Trump's just

Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump dumped his trusted campaign manager Corey Lewandowski on Monday. 

The move reportedly came without warning, though Lewandowski has been embroiled in a series of altercations and controversies seemingly since the start of the campaign. 

(Not much of an explanation was given, with the Trump camp releasing a brief statement praising Lewandowski before simply saying that he would "no longer be working with the campaign.")

Let's send the former campaign manager on a goodbye tour by reliving some of his brightest moments over the past year. 

The time he threatened to pull press credentials from a CNN reporter

As Trump's campaign continued to take the American political world by storm in November, Noah Gray, a CNN producer, stepped out of the press area to shoot video of a group protesting Trump at one of the candidate's rallies in Massachusetts. 

Gray found himself next to Lewandowski, who threatened to take the producer's credentials if he didn't head back to the "pen."

Gray sent out a few more tweets about the incident, angering Lewandowski in just one of many back-and-forths between Trump's campaign and the press. 

Charged with battery

In March, Lewandowski's name was again in headlines. This time, he was charged with battery for grabbing former Breitbart reporter Michelle Fields as she tried to ask Trump a question while the candidate walked by at a campaign event in Florida. 

Trump initially denied any wrongdoing by  his campaign manager, despite a plethora of video evidence to the contrary, as well as plenty of reporting to back Fields up.

The charges were dropped, but the incident led to a spate of news-making events. Fields resigned after Breitbart questioned her account. Several other reporters did the same. And that was only the beginning of an off-the-rails month for Lewandowski. 

Grabbing a protester

Later in March, the former campaign manager grabbed the collar of a protester at a Trump rally in Tucson, Arizona. 

The Trump campaign denied that Lewandowski grabbed anyone -- again, despite video evidence. 

Drunken phone calls

Most of Lewandowski's bad press came from his spasms of violence -- whether manhandling press and protesters or shouting threats at someone over the phone while drinking at a restaurant. 

But Lewandowski also called female reporters late at night to make unwanted sexual advances, according to Buzzfeed and Politico. 

One journalist described the advances as "completely inappropriate in a professional setting."

Three months later, Lewandowski finds himself on the outside looking in. Although, when he sat down to an interview with CNN after he was ousted, the former campaign manager had nothing but praise for Trump.

He even praised Trump's family, though reports suggest that Trump's children and son-in-law, Jared Kushner, were instrumental in swaying the candidate's decision to finally let go of his trusted right-hand man.

Whatever happened behind closed doors as Trump dismissed Lewandowski, the former campaign manager didn't appear slighted. He has said he will continue to help his former boss win the presidential election in November. 

"If I can do that from inside the campaign, that's a privilege," Lewandowski told CNN on Monday. "If I can do that from outside the campaign, that's also a privilege."
